| | City - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Although city can refer to an agglomeration including suburban and satellite areas, the term is not appropriate for a conurbation (cluster) of distinct urban places, nor for a wider metropolitan area including more than one city, each acting as a focus for parts of the area. |
 | | A city is an urban area that is differentiated from a town, village, or hamlet by size, population density, importance, or legal status. |
 | | A large share of a city's area is primarily taken up by housing, which is then supported by infrastructure such as roads, streets and often public transport routes such as a subway or a metro rail system. |
